Biography
Dymas was born in Epidaurus, Argolis, Greece, and he became a physician at Fort Tiryns. The fort commander stole Hippocrates' notes on the diseases of the mind (epilepsy) and gave them to Dymas, and the notes were burned during an attack on the fort, but not before Dymas had committed them to memory. In an attempt to help Hippocrates, Kassandra sought out Dymas at the fort and requested the notes. She had Dymas copy the notes down onto paper, and she delivered the notes to Hippocrates to assist him with curing his patients.
